UNP promises jobs for votes in Jaffna - Sunday Times

The United National Party has pledged jobs to unemployed graduates in Jaffna if they voted for the party in upcoming elections, reports Sri Lanka’s Sunday Times. 

Sri Lanka’s State Minister for Education Vijayakala Maheswaran has reportedly been registering details of unemployed graduates and others who are seeking government jobs at her office at Palaly Road.

“Those who registered said they were assured by the State Minister that if the UNP returned to power, they will be given appointments immediately,” said the Sunday Times. “All they had to do was to vote for her party.”
